Skywatcher 150mm EQ3 Reflector Telescope Sky-Watcher

The Skywatcher 150mm EQ3 Newtonian Reflector Telescope has a large objective lens that collects enough light to reveal a range of deep sky luminaries.

The included 6×30 achromatic finder scope allows for the easy location of planets, the moon and more, and a smooth rack and pinion focuser makes it easy to view exceptionally clear images of the night sky.

The included EQ3 equatorial mount gives you slow motion control of your telescope and makes it easy to keep track of the celestial objects you’re following. This heavy-duty mount features 360-degree worm-gear tracking controls on both axes, large knob-style R.A. and Dec. lock bolts, dual metal setting circle dials, a latitude adjustment screw, and a built-in polar scope holder. 

If you’re looking for an amazing reflector telescope that will produce bright, clear deep space images and allow you to further your passion for astronomy, then look no further than the 150 newtonian from Sky-Watcher.
